Nichts als das: Partikel 밖에
nichts außer einer Sache gibt. Es klingt oft ein bisschen negativer oder besorgter als das neutrale «만».
Grammar Rule in 30 Seconds
Use 밖에 to mean 'nothing but' or 'only', but you MUST end the sentence with a negative verb.
- Attach 밖에 directly to nouns: '돈밖에 없어요' (I have nothing but money).
